I'm kind of not bothered by the lack of actual depicted sex scene for this romance though. We get implications and body language and flirty lines but, especially if you have him remove the vallaslin, you get something permanent and life-altering and intimate that we ultimately know comes from some of his most sincerely held beliefs.
Lavellan getting some booty would be nice too, but I guess I'm okay with offscreen booty. 
WHAT.
No.
How have I reached the like limit already?
Like quota, I don't like you.
I can picture a humanized Cole as being very comforted by physical touch. Then again, snuggling to me isn't necessarily sexual. I snuggle my kids, after all, and my dogs, and there's not a blessed thing nasty about it.
I can't see the inner Circle as a snuggly group (outside of Josephine, maybe) so Cole would have to get his cuddles somewhere else!
No, no, I liked the snuggle thing particularly because it was cute and non-sexual. I also thought of all the cute Cole and bunnies drawings. Cole gives me a lot of feelings, and more now that I've been reading Asunder.
Meanwhile the Cole prompts with more sexual suggestions are the ones that weird me out.

I feel like @deedylovescake gives us plenty of booty to rely on while we wait

This is true. And I appreciate every last bit of this amazing discovery.
Psst (if she's still around): another hit of that elf porn, please.

finished cute porn should be up tonight at some point 
That censor bar was cruel and unusual punishment.
Just to confirm, The Tower card is what you get after the end game?
Yes, but only if you didn't romance Solas. Romanced Solas still gets the romance card (The Hierophant) at the end.

i didn't. It switched to the Tower card. OMG did I do something wrong...

It should have locked in. My card shows the romance one with the x over it after he leaves.

The Hierophant will also be Xed out, by the way, as well as paler in color.

Yup!

In reality though. My Keep says I romanced him. So I think I'm good...also cause I don't want to redo the break up scene...

I wouldn't go by the keep. Any DLC is going to go off the save. Not the keep. So I would run through a save before the final scene and finish out the game. So something may have jacked up on your game.

If you didn't romance Solas you get the Tower. If you did romance him you get the Hierophant card AFTER he dumps you and it remains after the game finishes.
This is what keeps me spiraling about his plot.

I'm not looking forward to doing this again on my mage, but she's gonna get angry and leave sad Solas standing there. :/

But Solas booty is most important booty.
Ugh. I've sorted out my Lavellan. She's good, she's chill. Everything's good. Then Weekes drops tweets like this, and I get excited for DLC, and I just *know* that I'll be an ugly sobbing mess when it drops. I LIKED HAVING SOMETHING APPROXIMATING DIGNITY OK
I do wish we could get this sooner, but I'm prepared for the feelings to all come rushing back. And because the romance was not part of the original plan, I just prepare for more of those bittersweet feelings. I picture my Lavellan as eventually being okay but the lack of answers and his disappearance do leave a wound that isn't going to properly heal for some time, even as she moves on with the rest of her life (as much as possible until things go down again).
edit:
The sounds of spiraling....
I'm not going to get rid of my Shiral's vallaslin. It would just look really strange, I think, because it covers so much area. I don't even know what she looks like without it at this point haha.
*Late response, because life*
THANK YOU EVERYONE for the love!
..and... because I have a desire to sate your curiosity, Kestrel, I give you... naked-face Shiral...
Lol... You're welcome.
On to other news:
DON'T DO THIS TO ME PW! I'm not sure I can handle more heartache... unless... unless of course you decide to allow humans to romance Solas, than uh... knock yourself out. 
Note to self: Pay better attention to Twitter...
New Message Sent chapter, yay!
*Reads it.*
Ugh. Now I have to wait again.
Amen. Woke up to a new chapter and now it's finished. 
I never thought there would come a time in my life where I was on the edge of my seat waiting to read a student/professor AU. What the actual hell.
Ary, your work is just so beautiful.

You and me both.
Also cute porn. I've never actually liked anything porn-related before.
Apparently, make things I normally don't like absolutely adorable and well-done is the key?
If you didn't romance Solas you get the Tower. If you did romance him you get the Hierophant card AFTER he dumps you and it remains after the game finishes.
This is what keeps me spiraling about his plot.
I, for one, am with you. The card change/romance lock after the break up gives me hope. Straight-up hope. I don't see any reason not to be optimistic.
Solas wasn't always going to be a romance option, therefore all future content is going to suck? He wasn't going to be a romance and all content up to this point has been amazing.
He's got plans that are going to be carried out no matter what? All the more reason to concentrate on his feelings and what is going on in his head--which is a whole freaking lot of love.
The break up scene is, imo, the best romantic scene I've ever seen. I don't think love has ever come through as well as it did while he was breaking up with her. I love that scene. I replay it as often as I replay the ridiculously well done kissing scenes--and I replay them a lot.
This romance is so well done. Why would that suddenly change?
